My Identity and my wrestling with my Hope and Faith
It was another good day. I think I’m starting to get a new streak and into a new groove. What is lacking in my life is an identity. I keep thinking about the identity I used to be, Husband, Father, Teacher, Creator. Now that my labels have changed the adjustment period has been challenging. I’m trying to remake my identity into something more solid. 1. Child of God, 2. Father, 3. Teacher 4. Creator It’s that old parable of Jesus and the song I remember from Sunday School “The Wise Man builds his house upon the Rock, The foolish man builds his house upon the Sand, When the Rains come the house on the sand goes Splat.” Keep your identity on something solid and that you can control. While you can’t control God obviously he is faithful and will always keep his promises. That is what I’m counting on. Old habits are hard to break. It’s just been a challenge to redefine myself largely because I didn’t want to do so...
